Briggs & Stratton 130000 Manual Del Operador página 8

1. Move the throttle control (A, Figure 10) to the IDLE position.
2. Adjust idle speed rpm: Turn the idle mixture valve (B, Figure 10) clockwise
(LEAN) until the engine starts to run rough. Turn the idle mixture valve (B)
counterclockwise (RICH) until the engine starts to run rough. Then, turn the idle
mixture valve (B) between the RICH and LEAN settings. Check the idle RPM and
adjust if necessary.
Servicing the Spark Plug
Check the spark plug gap (A, Figure 11) with a wire gauge (B). If necessary, set the
spark plug gap. Install and tighten the spark plug to the correct torque. For gap and
torque specifications, refer to the Specifications section.
NOTE: In some areas, it is mandatory by local law that you use a resistor spark plug
to decrease ignition signals. If a resistor spark plug was installed by the equipment
manufacturer, use the same type for replacement.
Servicing the Exhaust System
WARNING
During operation, the engine and muffler become hot. If you touch a hot engine,
thermal burns can occur.
Combustible materials, such as leaves, grass and brush, can catch fire.
• Before you touch the engine or muffler, stop the engine and wait two (2)
minutes. Make sure that the engine and muffler are safe to touch.
• Remove debris from the muffler and engine.
It is a violation of California Public Resource Code, Section 4442, to use or operate the
engine on any forest-covered, brush-covered, or grass-covered land unless the exhaust
system is equipped with a spark arrester, as defined in section 4442, maintained in
effective working order. Other states or federal jurisdictions may have similar laws;
reference Federal Regulation 36 CFR Part 261.52. Contact the original equipment
manufacturer, retailer, or dealer to obtain a spark arrester designed for the exhaust
system installed on this engine.
Remove debris from the muffler and cylinder area. Inspect the muffler for cracks,
corrosion, or other damage. Remove the deflector or the spark arrester, if equipped, and
inspect for damage or carbon blockage. If damage is found, install the replacement parts
before you operate the equipment.
WARNING
Replacement parts must be of the same design and installed in the same position as the
original parts. Other parts could result in damage or an injury.
Change Engine Oil
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion could result in
burns or death.
During operation, the engine and muffler become hot. If you touch a hot engine,
thermal burns can occur.
• If you drain the oil from the top oil fill tube, the fuel tank must be empty. If it is not
empty, fuel leakage can occur and cause a fire or an explosion.
• Before you touch the engine or muffler, stop the engine and wait two (2)
minutes. Make sure that the engine and muffler are safe to touch.
Used oil is a hazardous waste product and must be discarded of correctly. Do not
discard with household waste. Contact your local authorities, service center, or dealer
for safe disposal or recycling facilities.
Remove Oil
1. With the engine OFF but warm, disconnect the spark plug wire (D, Figure 12), and
keep it away from the spark plug (E).
2. Remove the dipstick (A, Figure 13).
3. Remove the oil drain plug (F, Figure 13). Drain the oil into an approved container.
4. Install and tighten the oil drain plug (F, Figure 13).
Add Oil
• Make sure the engine is level.
• Clean the oil fill area of all debris.
• Refer to the Specifications section for oil capacity.
1. Remove the dipstick (A, Figure 14). Remove oil from the dipstick with a clean cloth.
2. Slowly add oil into the engine oil fill (C, Figure 14) Do not overfill. Wait one minute
and then check the oil level.
3. Install and tighten the dipstick (A, Figure 14).
4. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level. The correct oil level is at the top of the
full indicator (B, Figure 14) on the dipstick.

5. Install and tighten the dipstick (A, Figure 14).
6. Connect the spark plug wire(s) to the spark plug(s). See Remove Oil section.
Servicing the Air Filter
WARNING
Fuel vapors are flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion could result in burns
or death.
• Do not start and operate the engine with the air cleaner assembly (if equipped)
or the air filter (if equipped) removed.
NOTICE
Do not use pressurized air or solvents to clean the filter. Pressurized air could result in
damage to the filter and solvents will dissolve the filter.
See the Maintenance Schedule for service requirements.
Different models will use a foam or a paper filter. Some models could also have an
optional pre-cleaner that can be washed and used again. Compare the illustrations in
this manual with the type installed on your engine and service as follows.
Plastic Air Filter
1. Loosen the fastener(s) (C, Figure 15).
2. Remove the cover (A, Figure 15) and the filter (B).
3. To loosen debris, lightly tap the filter (B, Figure 15) on a hard surface. If the filter is
dirty, replace it with a new filter.
4. Install the filter (B, Figure 15).
5. Install the cover (A, Figure 15) with the fastener(s) (C). Make sure that the
fastener(s) is tight.
Storage
Fuel System
Refer to Figure: 16.
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion could result in
burns or death.
Fuel Storage
• Because pilot lights or other ignition sources can cause explosions, keep fuel or
equipment away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or other appliances that
have pilot lights.
Keep the engine level (normal operating position). Fill the fuel tank (A, Figure 16) with
fuel. For fuel expansion, do not fill above the fuel tank neck (B).
Fuel can become stale when kept in a storage container for more than 30 days. The use
of an alcohol-free fuel stabilizer and ethanol treatment in the fuel storage container is
recommended to prevent fuel degradation and keep the fuel fresh.
When you fill the fuel container with fuel, add an alcohol-free fuel stabilizer as specified
by the manufacturer's instructions. If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a
fuel stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container. Operate the engine until it
is out of fuel.
Engine Oil
While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil. Refer to Change the Engine Oil
section.
